Paragraphs - Lately my family is hammering on this economic crisis....it really pisses me off, that Witnesses USE anything negative that comes along and throw it in your face to make this logical conclusion: economic_crisis=end_near=work_your_ass_off_for_the_WT....then after a while nothing happens, everybody goes mphff...shuts up....goes quietly along until the next crappy news hit the wire. This is such a sickening reasoning....it is like a cat trying to biting its own tail => USELESS! Since I´ve started my fading, i have been REALLY studying, REAL books (Economics and History, i have been spoon feed with the Societies view on History and have to re-read stuff with another point of view). Now, here comes interesting reading: WHY is this crisis happening? (besides the crappy sub-prime deals). Here the real reasons: http://www.thelongwaveanalyst.ca/cycle.html Watch this free movie for a very, very good explanation on all this things. After reading this stuff, watching this movie, further researching and REAL Meditation, i am very relaxed about all of this....with a clear mind YOU CAN be able to come up with a real, weather-proof battle plan: http://www.socionomics.net/films/history/default.aspx Simply said: EVERYTHING in nature is about cycles - SPRING - SUMMER - AUTUMN - WINTER -> WE as HUMANS "work" in cycles: Did you ever experienced this? You have a new hobby (let´s say going to the Gym)....you start real enthusiastic and keep up the schedule and everything is bright and fantastic...then after a few weeks it becomes daringly BORING...the new hobby/interest/ becomes routine and you stop it....you move onto something else...after a while you find your old workout books, stuff and become inspired again and start again, with fresh enthusiasm... Or at work. You decide to become very active and professional and get there in time, etc. After a while you get tired of this and start slackening again...until an new wave of new resolutions hit you like an iron.... Its all UPS and DOWNS. Now, the Economy is collectively speaking the same: We drive things up, entrepreneurship, new ideas, etc.....after a while the masses become complacent, self-satisfied with the accomplishments and "lean back".... Just a few thoughts. Keep your eyes open for NEW opportunities. Moments of economic crisis usually create new millionaires and "old" millionaires loose they´re wealth => it´s like turning the tables. A new start, a new game. I like Baron Rothschilds point of view: http://www.investopedia.com/articles/financial-theory/08/contrarian-investing.asp I´m not saying you should buy, I´m just saying I like the BOLD VIEW of doing something that everybody else ISN´T doing. And we, as Ex-JW or faders, or whatever have been used to the contrarian standpoint in life (thanks WT---ironically saying)....NOW, go and USE that to YOUR advantage. END of my little cheer-up speech. Relieved myself and shared with others. Mission accomplished.
